My babies are 2!

Has it really been that long? Today we celebrated with Grandma. We won't go into details but let's just say that this is the twins birthday that was marked with the first ice cream cone that was the messiest thing that I have ever experienced with Anthony. Addison didn't have a drop on her, she had been practicing with Victoria's plastic cone. LOL! And this was also the Birthday that we drove Grandma all around God's green earth trying to find where her keys (including car and house keys) fell off of her keyring that was hanging from her purse. It is best to just leave it at that. :)

My friend Jill always lists milestones at each month for her little Kade. I always enjoy reading them and wanted to make my own list. Hope you don't mind Jill.

-Anthony, you are talking alot more now and anything that you don't know what it is called you just call it "Gump"

-Addison, if you don't know what something is you call it "Ssshicken"

-You both are doing stairs much better now. I can now put you on the ground from the car when we get home and you meet me at the front door, making it much easier for Mommy to get you in and out of the house.

-Anthony you do great up the stairs until you get to the door ledge (which is less than half the height of the stairs) you climb up 3 steps then get down on your hands and knees to make that 1 1/2 lip on the door jam. It cracks me up.

-Addison you adore shoes. You want to sleep in them often and Mommy lets you so that you don't cry. I usually sneak in later to take them off after you are in dreamland.

-Anthony you are becoming a picky eater. If it doesn't resemble a cookie you really don't want much to do with it. You also know where Mommy keeps the cookies, and are getting really good at pointing. :)

-Addison your bed is now facing down the hall. You lean over the edge of your bed and try to have a conversation with Mommy after bedtime. Daddy and I tease you about giving your political speeches from your bed at night. You love to use your hand when you are talking.

-Anthony, you are now talking about "Poopy on the potty" which makes Mommy very happy and cringe all at the same time to think about potty training you. We still have to duck tape your diaper on. You got some fancy blue duct tape from Daddy for your birthday.

-Addison you have reached the "No" phase that everyone has warned me about. Daddy has told me that I need to pull in the reigns of my "Little Princess"

-Anthony, you still love your hats. Mommy was very excited to find you a cookie monster (your other favorite love) hat at Target.

-Addison if you need comforting, you need your "Blankie" You love the fleece one that Mommy make you and you like to chew on the fringe as you are trying to go to sleep.


Once Anthony got over the excitement of his new Cars slippers and Cookie Monster hat at Target he started to get a little sleepy....
